Armando's Kite Shack

Armando's Kite Shack is a kitesurfing school whose site says Armando was the first kitesurfer and first kitesurfing school in the Caribbean, giving riding guarantees after its four-lesson package since 1998. It offers group and private two-hour lessons (time slots between 9am and 3pm), kite and board equipment including twin tips, surfboards, foilboards and wing-foil boards, and Hobie Cat sailing when the wind is right. The shack sits on the beach at the Fisherman's Huts, north of the Ritz-Carlton.
